NAFCO is another option. I don't have personal experience, but I've heard good thinks about them. https://www.airloans.com/refurbish-upgrades/

The AeroCruze 230 (KFC 230) STC paperwork will be submitted first week in May, and we're expecting the STC to be completed by June pending the FAA. It's being tested on a Bonanza, and the PA 46 is on the second group of airframes to be added to the STC. I haven't got any updated information on...

Hi Folks, We definitely have some news coming out of AEA and Sun N Fun. First off, if anyone is at Sun N Fun stop by the BK booth and I'll be there through Thursday, so you can put a face to the name. Secondly, we have announced 2 new partnerships with Avidyne and Tru Trak. Lastly, for news...

We'll be getting some new information out this week for everybody. It's AEA this week in Palm Springs, which is where most company announce their new products. So get ready for a lot of new news in the avionics space as a whole! I am very interested in what Garmin is announcing tomorrow, and...

@Greg Gell The KA 310 will be required for connection between the KI300 and AeroCruze 230. In the future as new versions of the product come out the adapter box may just be needed for legacy installations. Cheers, Steve

I 100% agree that a WAAS option for the 94 or a slide-in replacement would be fantastic. Unfortunately, I'm low enough on the totem pole that I don't hear about the new products, until they are close to being announced. I know this topic has been discussed, but I have no idea where we would be...

I think the answer is yes, because I had this question posed on BT as well. I'm just double checking for my own sanity. Cheers, Steve

Greg, I'll check to see what our timing is looking like for getting your airplane on the aml for the AeroCruze 230 (KFC 230). I know the straight 58 is on the aml for the KFC 225, but I'll check for the 58P. Cheers, Steve

Hi Jaco, What model of Bonanza do you have? Cheers, Steve

The government shutdown has put us in a tough spot, because the KA 310 is at the point where we need FAA resources for test flights and function verification. At the moment we've had to push the KA 310 back to Q2 2019 that could change if we can complete some of the FAA required activities in a...

Engineering is looking at switch options right now. I'm hoping I can give some guidance for new yoke switches around the time of release. Cheers, Steve

Bryan, Thanks for weighing in. I think you're pretty much spot on, and we are working on bring our prices down. You can see this with our new autopilot releasing this quarter, and we've dropped the list price on the KI300 as well ($5330 USD with the autopilot adapter). It'll be a fight, but...

Eric, I appreciate the offer and I'll get it over to the flight test group ASAP. I'll PM you with further information. Happy New Year! Steve

Currently, flight plans can be loaded by using the KSN 770 PC Trainer (KSN Simulator) available to download from the BendixKing Website. At this time there are no plans to implement wireless or tablet loading. Full ADS-B in something engineering is trying to implement but there is no time frame...

I'm being told it was to do with horsepower, past that I don't have a much more information.

RFriesen, The KFC 230 received TSOII on 12/14 and we are continuing to push for the AML STC. So to answer your question. Yes, we are still on track for Q1 2019.

The L was essential a freebie with the STC. The M, R, and S are coming about 3 months after the initial release with the second wave of airframes being added to the STC.

@Jmcmanna, I'll get this over to Shane Pheleps who is our KSN 770 guru in tech support. Can you message me your phone number and I'll have him call you. Look forward to hearing from you, Steve

Also since I can post links now. https://www.bendixking.com/en/products/productitems/bendixking-confidence-plan There's an excel worksheet on that page, if you want to work up what it would cost to enroll one or multiple part numbers.

@flyingcheesehead, You can enroll failed units, but the price goes up. In a nutshell the contract is for 3 years (charged annually) and it will cover the cost of the exchange unit, or repair if an exchange is not available. It also covers the cost of the labor for removal and installation...
